Metcheck cocks it all up 2008-07-15 06:58:05 Even the experts can get it wrong. Metcheck, one of the most popular weather forecasting websites managed to screw up their move to bigger servers and ended up putting their site down for at least a day, ruining their Google listing in the meantime (see image below).
When I checked their website over the weekend it looked like their domain had expired and some speedy young chap or chapette ha
Trust me - I'm an expert 2008-08-08 04:12:00 I'm not usually one to boast or blow my own trumpet, but I want to remind you of a post I wrote a few weeks back about the importance of linking out for your website SEO and why you should be doing it with your own website.

Comparison of the top 10 SEO companies' backlinks 2008-07-29 06:44:48 I've been playing around with Yahoo Site Explorer for a while now and looking at the backlinks
that various sites have. It's a handy tool, but it does have its limitation (not least that it only allows you to view 1000 backlinks). But for getting a flavour of a site's backlinks then it does the job.

Google Chrome Plug-ins 2008-09-05 06:36:39 I've been using GoogleChrome
now for a few days and I really like it.
I'm a bit behind the times with posting a review but I wanted to take a few days to get used to it and see how I found it. So this is more of a considered review rather than first impressions.
Having said that, I think that for me, the first impressions still stand. It's fast, nice to use and seems to be stable - I haven'
Google Chrome Browser Market Share 2008-09-05 06:05:36 As you probably know (in fact, it's almost impossible to avoid it) - Google
launched a new web browser on September 2nd called Google Chrome

Whenever I speak about SEO, I generally always talk about Google rather than Yahoo, Live, Ask or whatever. I've been told that I should refer to search engines generically, and that's good advice, but I think I can be forgiven when you look at the market share that Google has.

This blog is moving! 2008-09-29 10:39:10 I've finally lost patience with Subtext so have taken the opportunity to move to WordPress.
